Hello !
It is NOT correct. I have success ! But ONLY as DISKLESS server.
Botting via network and using the PDC console works really well.
The machine is quite fast and in this setup stable.
I run the full SID debian on this machine, it can execute near
all executables, even X applications run (remote of course !).
Only three devices are not supported:
- MUX 8-way serial (except the PDC console using this polling
PDC driver)
- Parallel interface
- SCSI disks (which makes this machine to a diskless server !?!)
With getting more documentations and experiences, I will further
work on this (in background load, I am only hacking in my private
spare time ...).
First I will start on SCSI, Ryan works on the MUX of a K-serie
server, and I will try to port this driver. Every help is
welcome. I think we are a "bigger" group now, wishing E-class
support for Linux !!
